Abstract
Life-table parameters of clofentezine-hexythiazox susceptible, resista nt and back-crossed hybrid strains of Tetranychus urticae were studied to aid resistance management. Mean egg production (+/- s.e.) for the QRPH strain was 102.99 (13.452) and significantly more (P<0.05) than f or strains S 67.18 (8.370) and S-QRPH 50.98 (6.180) which were not sig nificantly different from each other. We consider the elevated level o f egg production evident in the QRPH strain to be evidence of coadapti on. The relative fitness of the resistant strain would make resistance management difficult.
